Famous quotes containing the words flag and/or days:

    Our flag is red, white and blue, but our nation is a rainbow—red, yellow, brown, black and white—and we’re all precious in God’s sight.
    Jesse Jackson (b. 1941)

    To get through their days, nervous natures such as mine have various “speeds” as do automobiles. There are uphill and difficult day which take an eternity to climb, and downhill days which can be quickly descended.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
